Bristol, R.I. – Saxophonist, flutist, and composer, Greg Abate will perform at Linden Place on Friday, January 26, 2024 at 7:00pm. Abate has played with jazz group legends including the Ray Charles Orchestra and the Artie Shaw Orchestra as well as at countless jazz festivals and jazz clubs throughout the U.S, Canada, Europe, the U.K and even Moscow. In 2016, Abate was inducted in the RI Music Hall of Fame.
“Multi-saxophonist Greg Abate is a prime example of the ‘rear back and blow’ school of contemporary bop-based players. The tunes he writes or chooses are based on the kinds of changes that harmony-oriented jazzmen have favored since the beginning and he swings through them with and eager and easy virtuosity.”
–David Franklin, Jazz Times
